    Great review - pretty good looking package with, i imagine, much better handling over its high-riding 7 seat rivals.

    You should review the top model as well

    MQB platform has serious electrical/electronic problems that VW is not interested in fixing. All I’ve been told when my golf and Passat both had same the issues at 3-4 years old was it’s old now and needs updating to a new one. Simply told them if you won’t stand behind it why the heck would I. Shame really, the bitdi engine in the passat was a masterpiece I reckon. Still got the Touareg v8 tdi and won’t sell that as the 2020 one here is the last decent engined one they’ll do I reckon

    A fantastic review. As a Sportline owner, I totally agree with your assessment. The quandary I face is having to replace it next year - do I get a new generation Kodiaq or the new 2.5 turbo Sante Fe, both yet to be reviewed locally. I don’t need 7 seats but love a big boot, that’s fun to drive yet comfortable over our terrible pot holed roads.

      If you like the Kodiaq I don’t think the Santa Fe is the car for you.

      Why not simply keep it?! My Octavia RS is approaching 15 years old and has been flawless. If you love it, why let it go?!

    To me this is just the right amount of power for this car, my driving it is rare to go over 80kph so this car is fast enough and it sounds good too.

      You don't need this vehicle then, save yourself about $40,000 and get a Kia Rio!

    How come Australia always seems to be last to the new model release?

      Because we're such a small market! We're a drop in the ocean in global terms. They sell 99% of these in Europe, that's where their bread and butter markets are, that's who they need to satisfy first.

      The twin turbo diesel is where it's at! If we weren't doing as much highway mileage as we used to we wouldn't have gotten rid of ours.

      @@kareembaba7498 The past has only limited relevance for the future. The stats that I referred to are the car breakdown statistics in Germany. Seems that the RAV4 doesn't like the autobahn ...
      It's also worth noting that many Toyotas have a 6-month service interval. Basically all cars are fairly reliable with such a service interval.

      Daughters 2015 Octavia excellence has 230 000 kays and runs beautifully. I'm 6"6" and have had many spine operations and suffer greatly from all these overly firm cars these days and our shit roads and it rides so comfortably it's sensational. I used to think like you but reading many positive owners experience with their SKODA's , sure there were the odd negative, I'm glad we went with this Octavia for my daughters first car..

      Toyotas hybrid Kruger also needs 95, as does the new hybrid Camry. After owning a Kodiaq for nearly 5 years found it to be great to drive, reliable and reasonably economical for what it was. On a long trip the best we had was 7.3, and average was about 8.6-9.2 with lots of city driving. Lots of room, especially in the front 2 rows with plenty of storage space on the back. Would highly recommend one as a family wagon. 👌🙂

      @@gort3969 True, but the. You don’t pay extra for having the complexity of a hybrid system either. And you don’t lose boot space, or a spare tyre like some other brands do. We bought ours as a demo car and did save a lot of cash up front. So after 5 years we were still a long way in front compared to a lot of other brands. Saving a bit on fuel is only one thing to consider when buying, and yes it is getting more expensive. But I work out our expected total costs over 5 years at least, and have found that sometimes having a hybrid doesn’t make much sense because of the higher purchase price to start with. But that is my choice, everyone has their own choice.
